Shadow Box

​A shadowbox fence is like a privacy fence, except instead of the pickets being side by side, one picket goes on one side, then the next picket goes on the other side. A shadowbox fence is not completely private because you can see a glimpse of the neighbor’s yard through the fence. There is only a small gap, so you can’t see completely through. Shadowbox fences are less likely to blow over because the wind can go through them.The shadowbox style has become more popular and gives off a creative look and can be paired with the ‘picture-frame’ style. It is also a good solution if you are sharing the cost of the fence with your neighbor.​
